Mary Alice Craig

Mary was born in Pickens County, daughter of the late William Jackson Stewart, Sr. and Grace Christine Brucke Stewart. Mary was a life-long resident of Pickens. After graduating from Pickens High School, Mary attended Draughon's Business School, where she made life-long friends. She married her high school sweetheart, the late James T. Craig, Sr., after his return from WWII. Mary was a member of Pickens First Baptist Church. She was very active in church activities, including having taught kindergarten, children's Sunday school, and adult Sunday school classes. Mary was a homemaker who enjoyed gardening and sewing for her family. She was an avid Clemson Tiger fan, and had a charitable heart, donating to many local organizations. Most importantly she loved being a mother and grandmother.
